When they start the article with "6.2l turbocharged engine" you know it isn't going to get any better.

Either you still have a lot of air in the system, or somewhere before the lift pump there is a pinhole leak in a fuel line allowing air to get into it. Can't be after the lift pump as it's all positive pressure at that point (I say can't, but it's not completely impossible) That is what seems...

The gauge is there mostly as reference. I've used 3 different senders and 2 different gauges, and every combination reads differently. Oil pump system is entirely mechanical, and usually either works or it doesn't. As long as the gauge reads pressure, and moves between low RPMs and high RPMs...

the 700xxx serial number is more consistent with being an M1097R1 truck, as regular production HMMWVs are still under the 400xxx or so mark, and the M1097R1 trucks are 500XXX and up.

I don't know anything about them, but if the 4 studs that are longer are evenly spaced, then it would make sense that those 4 are for helping pull everything together, and the rest being shorter is so you don't have to spend so much time tightening all the nuts down on longer studs, especially...

Unless you have an air leak somewhere in the system, then there shouldn't be any way for the fuel to drain back into the tank.

His is a 3 speed R1 truck, and has the cast mounts. The R1s don't have a UOC that I know of, and I didn't want to just assume for him that it was the same as the M1097A1 for those parts.

I believe that you'd want the A2 progressive rate springs as replacements. You definitely don't want the M1114 springs unless you're using it as a shelter truck or something similar with a lot of weight all the time.

Have you checked both the M998 manual as well as the M1114 manual, and made sure you had the newest versions? Also to add, it does seem that there are multiple springs that aren't in either manual series, due to both the H1 commercial market as well as kits that were made for the HMMWV by the...

The regulator for the alternator can be found in the $500+ price range, and often more. The Orion converter is about $125 all day long on Amazon. Yes, it will work on the rear battery, but not really designed for that large of a load, even intermittently. In this case I'd view the Orion as a...

I'll second this. If checked and not running, level will be much higher than when checked with engine in park and engine idling, which is how the manufacturer says to check level.

12V can be pulled directly off the rear battery with the dual voltage alternator. Supposedly it's good for up to 50 amps of 12V, but it's not recommended that you pull more than about 20 amps of additional load. If you need more than that, you should wire in an Orion 24-12V 70 amp converter...

One thing to mention is there are 2 different types of spring mounts for the rear. Most commonly referred to as cast and stamped/welded. Cast are just that, a chunk of cast steel. stamped/Welded are thick sheet metal bent into shape and welded up. The cast use a longer spring than the stamped...

Runs good at start, then loses power... Could be heat related, and the injection pump needing replaced. I'm not as familiar with with this possible issue, but something to keep in mind if everything else checks out good? As was mentioned before, you can open the fuel filter drain to see if...

Short answer, not worth it. you won't find any electric fans that move anywhere near as much air as the stock fan. Stock fan is in excess of 10k cfm air moved, and most electric are in the 2k cfm range, so you're talking a lot of fans and having to have room for all of them. I believe it's...

For solar, I had to write up a paper in a class where you were trying to convince a lender to loan you money to install a solar array. For my particular location, I wrote up a paper where I could not justify spending money on solar. Still got full marks. (I'm on the western side of the state)...

M1152 2 door truck M1165 4 door truck So my guess is they changed it from a 2 man configuration to a 4 man configuration

Every truck should be DOT 5 if it wasn't equipped with ABS.

As long as they physically fit in whatever location you want to mount them, and you can secure them. Also, the original 6TM battery was rated around 660CCA, so as long as they are above that you should be okay. I've been told the HMMWV will even start on a pair of lawnmower batteries, but that...

You caught me at the right time. Normally I don't even crawl out of bed for at least another 15 minutes.
